"Kyle was great from the first visit to view our problem to the completion. Always willing to answer questions. He really impressed our HOA when he came to a Saturday meeting to explain what was to be done. Bravo. G did wonders on that Bobcat and putting in the piers. Jack did great work on the repair of the crack. Each of these men were professional, answered all of our questions along the way and the clean up was impressive."

"I hired Dalinghaus Construction to install two push Piers for a freestanding column/wall (bad clay soil causing movement). I meet with Kevin to go over the scope of work and he explained everything in detail. The price was the best I can find. Took one extra day to finish the work, but they did not charge me any additional fees. 3 month later, I had a feeling that the column/wall is moving again and call Kevin. He show up in a few days and show me there is no way that wall is still moving and he was right. They are very good at what they do and customer service is the best. Thank you very much."

Geobear invented the geopolymer soil stabilization solution over 38 years ago, developing and refining the process that has helped stabilize more than 200,000 homes and commercial buildings across the globe. Our geopolymer injection process treats issues such as settlement, subsidence, and voids in the ground underneath your property. When your soil is weak, you may experience cracks in the walls or floors, unlevel floors, sticking windows or doors, and more. Addressing your foundation issues at the source helps to stabilize your foundation and protect your home. Our geopolymer injection method starts with drilling small holes in the affected area and injecting geopolymer materials under your property. The material is pumped into the soils as a liquid and expands into weak soils or voids to strengthen your foundation. Our solution begins curing in minutes and most projects can be completed in just 1-3 days - at a fraction of the cost, time, and hassle when compared to other methods.

"Noe gave us an extremely competitive price for a concrete block wall. He and his employee did a great job and went out of their way to get the job done quickly and efficiently. He also repaired a drainage pipe and made it usable again by stepping it down in size and extending it out past the wall. We would absolutely hire him again without hesitation. They did a great job and the wall looks awesome!"

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

Underpinning is a specific type of foundation repair where a specialist installs deep piers under a foundation to provide additional support. This method is often used when the soil beneath the foundation can no longer evenly support the structure. Foundation repair is an umbrella term that includes many methods. Besides underpinning, other common repairs include foundation crack repair, waterproofing, cosmetic repairs, and concrete block wall stabilization. Often, underpinning is accompanied by other work to address the root cause of the foundation issue, such as regrading the yard to ensure water drains away from the house.

A slab-on-grade or slab foundation is a great option in many areas—usually in warm or moderate climates—and has been a successful foundation style for many decades. Slab foundations don’t require excavation or concrete block wall construction, so they’re the least expensive foundation type. They’re also the fastest to construct and don’t have many issues with moisture or water intrusion. However, they don’t give you extra storage space or potential living space like a crawl space or basement would, and they’re not ideal in colder areas where utility lines can freeze and frost heave can cause major damage.

The most cost-effective foundation repair is using masonry patches and sealants to seal foundation cracks and offer some support to prevent further damage. These methods are used to fix minor foundation cracks quickly. However, they’re not suitable as a long-term solution, and they only offer minimal stability. On average, masonry patches and sealants cost $500, but a sealant like an epoxy crack injection can total over $2,000. If you’re handy and only looking for a temporary solution until you contact a local foundation repair contractor for a more permanent one, you can save hundreds by DIYing this repair.

Generally, foundation cracks and repair are not covered by standard homeowners insurance policies. This type of damage is often considered normal wear and tear or a result of poor maintenance, which is the homeowner's responsibility. For example, damage caused by settling, shifting soil, or drainage issues is typically excluded.

However, there are exceptions. Coverage may apply if the foundation damage is a direct result of a covered peril, such as a house fire, a burst pipe, vandalism, or a vehicle accident. Coverage for natural disasters like earthquakes and floods often requires a separate, specific policy or add-on.

If your building department catches you or a contractor doing foundation work without proper permits, they will likely put the work on hold until you secure the necessary permits, which can cause delays of days or even weeks. You can also face violation charges for construction without a permit, which can cost hundreds, depending on where you live.
